WHAT do you say to a man whose
fiancée had canceled their wedding? Or a woman whose boyfriend had
traded her for her own best friend? Or even someone who is longing
to get married, but has yet to find “the one”?
These
people—and more—have found comfort through one of OMF
Literatures unique books this love month, How to Mend a Broken
Heart. It gives real-life advice taken from real-life heartbreak.
In his
introduction, author Nelson T. Dy writes, “Many books will talk
about how to succeed in getting married. But what do you do when you
are rejected, ignored, dumped or unloved?”
In How to Mend
a Broken Heart, Dy invites readers to walk with him as he revisits
the roads of his own heartbreak. He courageously shares his many
painful experiences and the valuable lessons he learned during his
heart-mending process. Dy employs analogies between stories of real
people in the Bible like Moses, Elijah, Naomi and David who bore
their own kinds of heartaches and later found comfort and healing.
How to Mend a
Broken Heart is a journey into the heart, written in the honest and
conversational tone of the author. This book doesn’t show how to
avoid heartache. Instead, this book seeks to “help you prepare for
it” and shows readers they are not alone in their suffering. The
knowledge that broken-heartedness doesn’t have to be endured in
isolation and desperation helps facilitate the healing process.
Dy ends each
chapter with short, arrowlike statements that help readers reflect
on what they have learned in that chapter. Throughout the book, a
message resonates: finding the right person shouldn’t be the sole
focus of one’s existence. It should instead be about becoming the
right person for the one God has willed for you.
How to Mend a
Broken Heart is available in leading bookstores nationwide.
